Concentration camp ‘Muslims’ failed a capitalist logic of value and were mostly Jews

Evidence

Insistently marked for their failure to submit to a logic of value and capital, the Muslims are “the men in decay [with whom] it is not even worth speaking.” They are the “weak, the inept, those doomed to selection,” those who stopped fighting, living dead or walking corpses who were no longer able to fold their legs. Unlike Freud’s “Turks,” who are “plunged in a despair that contrasts strangely with their resignation towards the threat of death,” the Muslims were mostly Jews (“most frequently, one saw Muslims among the Jews”), 102 but not only (and perhaps no longer) Jews, and they are turning ghosts. — Gil Anidjar, The Jew, the Arab, 697
